The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon. “It might have a mint or something. We realized that all those trays, they were all Hod’s stuff and it was like one contact and expired bean dip and navel and all that stuff.’
Choice to clean up Today Guthrie sent Kotb, 60, a hilarious video of her trashing Kotb’s collection of things. “Oh hello girl. Guess you didn’t want any of that…,” Guthrie joked in the clip, which he hosted Jimmy Fallon shown on air. “I don’t mind,” Guthrie added before dumping Kotb’s trays in the trash. “I love you.”
After the clip, Guthrie pointed out how dirty the tray itself looked. “It was like rusty wheels,” she joked. “I mean, it was disgusting.
Fallon, 50, recalled how he was once surprised by the condition of Kotb’s purse, saying, “It looks like a file folder. It looked like my father’s old wallet.”
Guthrie continued to poke fun at Kotb, noting how she sometimes chooses to use a plastic bag over her purse at red carpet events. “And the Ziploc (bag), which is clear, will have a banana and a tampon (in it),” she said.

“I called it (sic) ‘Forward and Up’ because you get in the elevator and you go up, right?” he said on Friday’s episode of the show Today with Hoda and Jenna. “But then I signed it, and then no one can read my text. My handwriting is so bad it looks like it says ‘Osmond and Uptown’.”

You know who shows up for everyone? This girl. … He’s at peace, he’s still at peace and I love you,” she gushed into the air. “Craig, I’m so happy for you. You earned this, you own this, and come Monday at 7am, I’ll be dead asleep. But you will be fantastic. You bring it home. Craig, you will be so good. You and Savannah will be magicians.”
Contrary to Kotb’s comments, Guthrie told Fallon on Wednesday that Kotb “got up earlier than me on Monday.” She added: “Hoda gets up at 3am on Saturday. But she’s doing great. FaceTime with her.”
While Kotb announced that she is working on a wellness app and company, she is enjoying her first week away Today by taking her daughters Haley, 8, and Hope, 5, to school. “Another regular… ordinary… spectacular day xo,” she captioned the photos of herself and her girls, which she shares with her ex-fiancé Joel Schiffmanwalking down the driveway via Instagram on Thursday, January 16.
